Note: This piece is meant to be hung at a 45 degree angle (in the shape of a diamond).
An interpretation of ironic narcissistic beauty. Beautiful yet dangerous, gratuitous yet costly, free yet bound by chains… a sardonic view of societies glorification of violence. This wood panel is resin’d to give it a glass like tabletop finish, however the acrylic paint is textured below giving the piece some depth. The glitter in the gun will catch your eye every time you walk by complimented by silver alcohol ink giving it beautiful reflections.
“Whoever loves becomes humble. Those who love have, so to speak, pawned a part of their narcissism.” –Sigmund Freud
